Deuteronomy 2
1 kut forla ac folokla nu yen mwesis, ke inkanek nu inalok ke Meoa Srusra, oana LEUM GOD El sapkin, ac kut sisla pacl loeloes in foroht forma infulan eol lun Edom.
And we turned and departed into the wilderness, by the way of the Red Sea, as the Lord spoke to me, and we compassed mount Seir many days.
2 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik mu
And the Lord said to me,
3 fal tari pacl kut forfor infulan eol ingo, ac kut enenu in som nu epang.
You have compassed this mount long enough; turn therefore towards the north.
4 El fahk nu sik ngan sot nu suwos kas inge: ‘Kowos akuranna fahsr sasla infulan eol Edom, facl sin fwilin tulik natul Esau, su mwet liwos. Elos ac fah sangeng suwos,
And charge the people, saying, You are going through the borders of your brethren the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they shall fear you, and dread you greatly.
5 tusruktu nik kowos aklokoalokyalos, mweyen nga fah tia sot kutu srisrik acn lalos nu suwos, finne square foot se. Nga sang tari acn Edom tuh in ma lun mwet ke fwilin tulik natul Esau.
Do not engage in war against them, for I will not give you of their land even enough to set your foot upon, for I have given mount Seir to the children of Esau as an inheritance.
6 Kowos ku in moul mongo nowos ac kof nimowos selos.’
Buy food of them for money and eat, and you shall receive water of them by measure for money, and drink.
7 “Esam lah LEUM GOD lowos El akinsewowoye kowos in ma nukewa kowos oru. El karingin kowos in forfor lowos yen mwesis lulap se inge. El wi kowos ke yac angngaul inge, ac sot ma nukewa kowos enenu.
For the Lord our God has blessed you in every work of your hands. Consider how you went through that great and terrible wilderness: behold, the Lord your God [has been] with you forty years; you did not lack any thing.
8 “Na kut mukuiyak ac som liki inkanek ma som liki siti Elath ac Eziongeber nu ke Meoa Misa, na kut kuhfla nu kuta epang in som nu Moab.
And we passed by our brethren the children of Esau, who lived in Seir, by the way of Araba from Aelon and from Gesion Gaber; and we turned and passed by the way of the desert of Moab.
9 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Nimet aklokoalokye mwet Moab, su fwilin tulik natul Lot, ac nimet mweun nu selos. Nga sang tari siti Ar nu selos, ac nga ac tia sot nu suwos kutena acn selos.’” (
And the Lord said to me, Do not you quarrel with the Moabites, and do not engage in war with them; for I will not give you of their land for an inheritance, for I have given Aroer to the children of Lot to inherit.
10 Sie un mwet na yohk pisa pangpang mwet Emim muta in acn Ar meet. Elos mwet na loeska oana mwet Anak, sie pacna un mwet yohk pisa.
Formerly the Ommin lived in it, a great and numerous nation and powerful, like the Enakim.
11 Kutu mwet uh pangon mwet Emim ac mwet Anak ke e se inge: Rephaim. Tusruktu mwet Moab uh pangnolos Emim.
These also shall be accounted Raphain like the Enakim; and the Moabites call them Ommin.
12 Mwet Hor elos tuh muta Edom in pacl meet, tusruktu fwilin tulik natul Esau luselosla, kunausla mutunfacl selos, ac oakwuki we, oapana ma mwet Israel elos tuh oru tok ke elos lusla mwet lokoalok lalos liki acn ma LEUM GOD El tuh sang selos.)
And the Chorrhite lived in Seir before, and the sons of Esau destroyed them, and utterly consumed them from before them; and they lived in their place, as Israel did to the land of his inheritance, which the Lord gave to them.
13 “Na kut alukeot Infacl Zered, oana LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sesr.
Now then, arise you, [said I], and depart, and cross the valley of Zaret.
14 Ma inge sikyak yac tolngoul oalkosr tukun kut tuku liki acn Kadesh Barnea. Mwet mweun nukewa in fwil sac misa nufon, oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk.
And the days in which we travelled from Cades Barne till we crossed the valley of Zaret, [were] thirty and eight years, until the whole generation of the men of war failed, dying out of the camp, as the Lord God sware to them.
15 LEUM GOD El nuna lainulos na nwe ke El kunauselosla nukewa.
And the hand of the Lord was upon them to destroy them out of the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
16 “Tukun elos nukewa misa,
And it came to pass when all the men of war dying out of the midst of the people had fallen,
17 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sesr,
that the Lord spoke to me, saying,
18 ‘Misenge kowos ac fahsr sasla acn lun mwet Moab ke inkanek nu Ar.
You shall pass over this day the borders of Moab to Aroer;
19 Na kowos ac fah apkuran nu ke facl sin mwet Ammon, su fwilin tulik natul Lot. Nikmet aklokoalokyalos ku mweun nu selos, mweyen nga ac tia sot kutena acn lowos ke acn ma nga sang tari nu selos.’” (
and you shall draw near to the children of Amman: do not quarrel with them, nor wage war with them; for I will not give you of the land of the children of Amman for an inheritance, because I have given it to the children of Lot for an inheritance.
20 Facl se inge oayapa eteyuk mu facl sin mwet Rephaim, inen mwet ma tuh muta we meet, a mwet Ammon uh pangnolos Zamzummim.
It shall be accounted a land of Raphain, for the Raphain lived there before, and the Ammanites call them Zochommin.
21 Elos arulana loes, oana mwet Anak. Oayapa elos arulana pus, ac sie un mwet na fokoko. Tusruktu LEUM GOD El kunauselosla, tuh mwet Ammon in eisla acn selos ac oakwuki fac.
A great nation and populous, and mightier than you, as also the Enakim: yet the Lord destroyed them from before them, and they inherited [their land], and they lived [there] instead of them until this day.
22 LEUM GOD El tuh oru ouiya se pacna inge nu sin mwet Edom, fwilin tulik natul Esau, su muta infulan eol lun Edom. El kunausla mwet Hor, ac oru tuh mwet Edom in eisla acn selos ac oakwuki we, ac elos srakna muta we nwe inge.
As they did to the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, even as they destroyed the Chorrhite from before them, and inherited their country, and lived [therein] instead of them until this day.
23 Acn ma oan weacn Meoa Mediterranean oakwuki tari sin mwet tuku liki tuka Crete. Elos onela mwet Avvim, su mwet na pwaye we, ac eisla acn nukewa lalos, som na nwe siti Gaza in acn eir.)
And the Evites who dwell in Asedoth to Gaza, and the Cappadocians who came out of Cappadocia, destroyed them, and lived in their room.
24 “Tukun kut fahla sasla Moab, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sesr, ‘Inge, fahsrot alukela Infacl Arnon. Nga ac eisalot Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor ke siti Heshbon, nu inpouwos wi pac facl sel. Kowos in mweunel, ac mutawauk in muta fin acn sel.
Now then arise and depart, and pass over the valley of Arnon: behold, I have delivered into your hands Seon the king of Esebon the Amorite, and his land: begin to inherit [it]: engage in war with him this day.
25 Misenge lac, nga ac oru mutanfahl nukewa in sangeng suwos. Mwet nukewa fah rarrar ac sangeng ke elos ac lohng keiwos.’
Begin to put your terror and your fear on the face of all the nations under heaven, who shall be troubled when they have heard your name, and shall be in anguish before you.
26 “Na nga supwala kutu mwet utuk kas yen mwesis Kedemoth lac nu yorol Tokosra Sihon lun Heshbon, ke kas in akmisye inmasrlosr inge:
And I sent ambassadors from the wilderness of Kedamoth to Seon king of Esebon with peaceful words, saying,
27 ‘Lela nu sesr in fahsr sasla acn sum uh. Kut ac fahsrna ke inkanek lulap uh, ac tiana kuhfla liki.
I will pass through your land: I will go by the road, I will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
28 Kut ac moli mwe mongo nasr ac kof nimasr. Ma sefanna kut enenu uh pa kut in fahla fin acn sum an,
You shall give me food for money, and I will eat; and you shall give me water for money, and I will drink; I will only go through on my feet:
29 nwe ke kut alukela Infacl Jordan nu in facl se LEUM GOD El ase in lasr. Tulik natul Esau su muta Edom, ac mwet Moab su muta Ar, elos lela kut in alukela facl selos.’
as the sons of Esau did to me, who lived in Seir, and the Moabites who lived in Aroer, until I shall have passed Jordan into the land which the Lord our God gives us.
30 Tusruktu Tokosra Sihon el tia lela kut in fahsr sasla fin facl sel. LEUM GOD lowos El akupaye insial in lain kowos, kut in mau ku in kutangulla ac eisla facl sel, su kut srakna muta fac nwe misenge.
And Seon king of Esebon would not that we should pass by him, because the Lord our God hardened his spirit, and made his heart stubborn, that he might be delivered into your hands, as on this day.
31 “Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Liye, nga oru tuh Tokosra Sihon ac acn sel uh in munas suwos. Sruokya acn sel an ac muta fac.’
And the Lord said to me, Behold, I have begun to deliver before you Seon the king of Esebon the Amorite, and his land, and do you begin to inherit his land.
32 Tokosra Sihon el tufokme wi mwet lal nukewa in mweuni kut apkuran nu ke siti Jahaz,
And Seon the king of Esebon came forth to meet us, he and all his people to war at Jassa.
33 tusruktu LEUM GOD lasr El eisalosme nu inpaosr, ac kut unilya, wi wen natul ac mwet lal nukewa.
And the Lord our God delivered him before our face, and we struck him, and his sons, and all his people.
34 In pacl sac pacna, kut sruokya ac kunausla siti nukewa, ac uniya mwet nukewa: mukul, mutan, ac tulik. Wangin mwet moul.
And we took possession of all his cities at that time, and we utterly destroyed every city in succession, and their wives, and their children; we left no living prey.
35 Kut usla kosro nukewa ac ma saok nukewa in siti lalos.
Only we took the cattle captive, and took the spoil of the cities.
36 LEUM GOD lasr El kasrekut in sruokya siti nukewa, mutawauk Aroer sisken Infahlfal Arnon, wi siti se ma oan infulwen infahlfal uh, som na nwe Gilead. Wangin siti ma kalkalyak ku, upa nu sesr in eisla.
From Aroer, which is by the brink of the brook of Arnon, and the city which is in the valley, and as far as the mount of Galaad; there was not a city which escaped us: the Lord our God delivered all of them into our hands.
37 Tusruktu kut tia som apkuran nu ke acn lun mwet Ammon, ku nu ke pe Infacl Jabbok, ku nu ke siti infulan eol uh, ku nu ke kutena acn ma LEUM GOD El sap kut in tia som nu we.
Only we did not draw near to the children of Amman, even all the parts bordering on the brook Jaboc, and the cities in the mountain country, as the Lord our God charged us.
